I understand these issues and prefer Gordon Brown's managed reduction whilst fighting for the place I live.

The alternative 'managed' reduction is what? Spending hundreds of billions of pounds of taxpayers money paying high interest rates to bankers because government has spent beyond its means. The interest payments alone dwarf the entire schools budget. It's predicted to be double that of defence spending, while we're at war. It's a disgrace. We need to get the deficit down quickly so we can start paying back our vast amounts of debt.
